Looking for the best cpu upgrade for around $100. Here are the specs:

P4 1.6A running at 2.2ghz
512 PC2100 running at 140
Geforce 4 TI4200

There's a Fry's around me that sells the 2800+ with motherboard for $99 but do I also need to upgrade the memory and how much of a performance upgrade would this be? I do mostly video encoding and occasionally gaming. Thanks.

If you want to stay budget, consider getting a Sempron 3100+ and a Skt 754 Chainteck NF3 250 board. I'm not sure about memory, but 1 GB would be standard for video encoding.
